Abstract:

The article discusses a new hypothesis of coevolutionary-macromutational origin of human language, through the prism of which this planetary-noospheric phenomenon is proposed to be considered as a natural artifact of holisticsynergetic coevolution of nature, society and culture. The following assumption has been suggested: the proposed hypothetical idea is a resonance of the former two philosophical theories: the fusion theory and the thesis theory, which were regarded by scientists either as natural or artificial (conventional / conditional) nature of human language. At the same time, they di

Abstract:

Experiments are conducted to assess the utility of processing building blocks within a framework of evolutionary computation. Systems of linear equations are used for testing the efficiency of different recombination operators, including one- and two-point and uniform crossover. The consistent results indicate that uniform crossover, which disrupts building blocks maximally, generates statistically significantly better solutions than one- or two-point crossover. Moreover, for the cases of small population sizes, crossing over existing solutions with completely random solutions (i.e., macromuta

Abstract:

Allopolyploidy through the combination of divergent genomes into a common nucleus at doubled dosage is known as a potent genetic and evolutionary force. As a macromutation, a striking feature of allopolyploidy in comparison with other mutational processes is that ‘genome shock’ can be evoked, thereby generating rapid and saltational biological consequences. A major manifestation of genome shock is genome-wide gene expression rewiring, which previously remained to be fully elucidated. Here, using a large set of RNAseq-based transcriptomic data of a synthetic allotetraploid wheat (genome AADD) a

Cultivated plants and their wild progenitors show marked phenotypic differences regarding seed dormancy, the ability to disperse seeds, growth habit, phenology, photoperiod sensitivity, etc. We have used RFLP mapping to investigate the genetic control of these differences in a recombinant inbred population derived from across between a snap bean and a wild bean. Traits were scored either at Davis or in Colombia. Our results suggest that the genetic control is relatively simple. In particular, most of the phenotypic variation (>60%) in the population could be accounted for in genetic terms f

Abstract:

It is argued that carcinogenesis and speciation are evolutionary events which are based on changes in the ‘karyotypic code’ through a phase of ‘genome instability’, followed by a bottleneck of selection for the viability and adaptability of the initial cells. Genomic (i.e., chromosomal) instability is caused by (massive) DNA breakage and the subsequent mis-repair of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) resulting in various chromosome rearrangements. Potential tumor cells are selected for rapid somatic proliferation. Cells eventually yielding a novel species need not only to be viable and proliferat

Abstract:

The origin and inheritance of chromosome changes provide the essential foundation for natural selection and evolution. The evolutionary fate of chromosome changes depends on the place and time of their emergence and is controlled by checkpoints in mitosis and meiosis. Estimating whether the altered genome can be passed to subsequent generations should be central when we consider a particular genome rearrangement. Through comparative analysis of chromosome rearrangements in soma and germ line, the potential impact of macromutations such as chromothripsis or chromoplexy appears to be fascinating

Abstract:

Macroevolution, encompassing the deep-time patterns of the origins of modern biodiversity, has been discussed in many contexts. Non-Darwinian models such as macromutations have been proposed as a means of bridging seemingly large gaps in knowledge, or as a means to explain the origin of exquisitely adapted body plans. However, such gaps can be spanned by new fossil finds, and complex, integrated organisms can be shown to have evolved piecemeal. For example, the fossil record between dinosaurs and Archaeopteryx has now filled up with astonishing fossil intermediates that show how the unique ple

Abstract:

Patterns of temporal variation of six characters in a Miocene stickleback (Gasterosteus doryssus) are presented. Most pairs of characters tend to be correlated, but these correlations account for only about 26% of the observed variation, and thus the characters are studied separately. All character state frequencies exhibit temporal heterogeneity, and their means have temporal trends. Regardless of these overall trends, reversals of the trends cause end members of four time series not to differ significantly from each other. We argue that most observed temporal variation represents intrapopula

Abstract:

The Darwinian or neo-Darwinian evolutionary paradigm is based on random mutation and natural selection, favours vertical gene transfer and gradualism over horizontal gene transfer and sudden big changes, respectively. In recent times, however, it has been shown that horizontal gene transfer has a bigger role in evolution and evidence emerged for saltation of non-complex lifeforms. Here, I argue that it is time to revisit orthogenesis and saltation of complex life (macromutation) too, and consider the phenomenon of evolution from a more holistic viewpoint.

Abstract:

Polyploidization (whole-genome duplication, WGD) is a widespread large-effect macromutation with far-reaching genomic, phenotypic, and evolutionary consequences. Yet, we do not know whether the consistent phenotypic changes that are associated with polyploidization translate into predictable changes in ecological preferences. Niche modeling studies in mixed-ploidy species provide an opportunity to compare recently originated polyploids with their lower-ploidy ancestors. However, the available isolated studies provide contrasting results and the diverse methodologies used limit generalization.

Abstract Whole-genome duplication is a common macromutation with extensive impacts on gene expression, cellular function, and whole-organism phenotype. As a result, it has been proposed that polyploids have “general-purpose” genotypes that perform better than their diploid progenitors under stressful conditions. Here, we test this hypothesis in the context of stresses presented by anthropogenic pollutants. Specifically, we tested how multiple neotetraploid genetic lineages of the mostly asexually reproducing greater duckweed (Spirodela polyrhiza) perform across a favorable control environment

Heliconius warning colour is a good example of a genetic system shaped by strong selection. The genetics of colour patterns in interracial hybrid zones within both H. erato and H. melpomene was investigated. Within each species, the loci controlling these pattern differences are mostly homologous to those known from other races, but have somewhat different phenotypic effects. The precise genetic control varies geographically, even for nearly identical colour patterns. Independent evolution of the same pattern is unlikely; instead evolution of the genetic system is hypothesized to have occurred
